James 4:8I have a friend who, at one point, was a self-con-

fessed shopping addict. Recently, his family realizedthat this activity had stopped, though he hadn't inten-tionally curtailed it. Why, they wondered, did his long-

ing to acquire more goods seem to dissolve? The reason was that my friend had become more satisfied with the Lord. He no longer needed fulfill-ment from what the world had to offer. What a terrific illustration of growth in Christ. In addition to finding fulfillment in God, there are many other growth indicators that are noticeableto the believer. For instance, offering forgiveness becomes easier over time. Consider our Savior, whoasked God to forgive even those who crucified Him on the cross. Also, as we mature, our faith will increase. God loves us, and He gracefully and gently builds our con-fidence in Him. Then, as our trust grows, we realize how faithful He truly is--which grows our assuranceeven more. Another mark of a closer walk with Christ is an expanding concern for others' spiritual condition. Andfinally, as our relationship with the Lord deepens, we will increasingly desire to obey Him. This desire isborn not out of fear but out of love for our heavenly Father. Similarly, when we do sin, our hearts will be-come saddened and repentant. Are you satisfied spiritually? Or do you have a growing, insatiable hunger for more of Jesus? Friend,if you think that you've come far enough in your journey with Christ, you have made a terrible mistake.You are missing great fulfillment and the excitement that comes from getting closer to Him.

Evidence of a Growing Believer

Inspiration Point

I think it is pertinent to the topicof the week, “ask anything” to posethe question, “What does it meanto be a doctor”? This is especiallyapropos as a new crop of doctorsare graduating from med school. Did you know that in order toenter into the profession of medi-cine, each new doctor must make aserious promise? It is to profess orto give one’s solemn word to do theright thing in the name of all thatis sacred, and this pledge is givenin public for all to see and hear. Bythe way, it is this professing orpromising that is the basis for theword “profession”. In a recent issue of the medicaljournal Pharos, Edward Harris,the editor, writes about three partsto the promise. First it has to dowith valuing service to others overpersonal reward. That means med-icine is a profession that shouldnot be undertaken with profit inmind. I would state here thatclearly most premed students do

not go into medicine for profit, al-though there are be a few that do,and I see them as the least blessedof the profession. Next, Harris points out that asa medical profession, we should beresponsible for monitoring who areethical and competent enough tograduate from med school, to be li-censed to practice, and to continueto practice. It is important to pro-tect the public from unethical orincompetent physicians, and thatis why we have a State Board ofMedical Examiners. Finally, we profess to keep thesacred trust of a valuable body ofknowledge, to continuously cri-tique, question, and challenge thatknowledge, and to pass it on inorder to benefit every individualpatient. And passing on knowledge iswhat we are trying to do with ourtelevision show “On Call”®. That’sa promise.

Ask Anythingand neighbors.

South Dakotans not only speakwords of gratitude, but also expressgratitude through their acts ofgoodwill and charity. In communi-ties across the state, fundraisersare held for families experiencingtough times, neighbors offer a help-ful hand with errands, and fooddrives and Thanksgiving dinnersare provided for those who are inneed of a warm meal and friend-ship. The selfless acts of thosearound us make each of us thank-ful that South Dakota is the placewe call home.

As the year draws to a close, Iam thankful for my wonderful fam-ily and the opportunity to continueto serve our state in the U.S. Sen-ate. The new year will be filledwith challenges, but it will also befilled with the promise for manygreat blessings. Kimberley and Iwish all South Dakotans and theirfamilies safe travels and a veryblessed Thanksgiving.

The passing months have high-lighted some of the country’s deepdivides and overwhelming chal-lenges. As the end of the year ap-proaches, it is important to pauseand give thanks for the many bless-ings that come with living in thisgreat country.

The national celebration ofThanksgiving reminds each of us toset aside our frustrations, worries,and problems, and instead taketime to express gratitude for thegood fortune in our lives. We arethankful for the exceptional serviceof our brave troops around theworld, who protect our nation fromforeign and domestic threats. Weare thankful to live in a countrywhere we can freely worship ourCreator, speak our minds withoutfear, and enjoy the freedom that isthe cornerstone of our society. Andperhaps most of all, we are thank-ful for the blessings of family, forthe support of our communities,and for the fellowship of our friends

Counting our blessingsby Senator John Thune

One of the greatest honors Ihave had as South Dakota’s lonerepresentative is to help send offand welcome home the brave menand women of our military. Everytime I participate in an activationor a welcome home ceremony, I amreminded just how blessed we areto have so many individuals volun-tarily put themselves in danger toprotect the freedoms we hold sodear. Over 72,000 veterans call SouthDakota home, and this VeteransDay is an opportunity to say “thankyou.” Because of these men andwomen and the countless coura-geous patriots that came beforethem, South Dakotans can con-tinue to wake up in the greatest,most free nation in the world. That’s why it is so important totreat our veterans with the honorand respect they deserve. I havesupported legislation that assistsveterans in transitioning back tocivilian life by providing them withquality health care, education as-sistance and job developmentskills. We must keep veterans a top

priority, and I intend to continuedoing just that in Congress. I hope every South Dakotanfrom Sioux Falls to Rapid City willtake time to thank a veteran thisVeterans Day for the sacrifices theymade for us. In addition, there area number of events occurringacross the state to honor our veter-ans. I plan to attend a VeteransDay program in Watertown, and Iencourage South Dakotans to at-tend a local event in their commu-nity or go to a nearby VA facility tovisit with a veteran. Our veterans are heroes, and Iwant to thank each and every onewho has answered the call to serve.My office stands ready to assist vet-erans with any problems they arehaving with the federal govern-ment. Whether they need assis-tance with benefit claims or need areplacement set of military medals,I encourage veterans to contact oneof my offices so we can help. Thoseneeding assistance should visit mywebsite at http://noem.house.govfor more information.

“It makes you wonder,” is a com-mon phrase of friend Leo. In truth,there are lots of things out therethat do make you wonder fromwhy people do the things they do,to election results, to imponder-able matters of time and the uni-verse. Take Indian tacos for instance.I can never quite believe that eat-ing them doesn’t result in majorindigestion. They start with somebread fried in oil or grease andtopped with very spicy hamburgerprobably involving hot peppersand their ilk. Add some innocuoustomatoes, lettuce and cheese, andfinish it off with lots of raw onionand green pepper. Salsa and sourcream go on top making it seemlike stomach upset should be thenatural result. I’m always sur-prised when, after eating this tastyconcoction, I suffer no ill effects.Tums aren’t even required beforesettling down for a nap afterwards.As Leo says, “It makes you won-der.” The size of the universe is an-other subject that is hard to wrapyour mind around. ConsiderDeneb, for example, which is oneof the fifteen brightest stars visiblein this hemisphere. It is roughly1,600 light years away whichmeans the light you see fromDeneb tonight started travelinghere 1,600 years ago at the speedof light or 186,000 miles per second(700 million miles per hour,) and itis just now arriving. Oof! Secondly,since it is so very far away and stillso bright, that means it is huge—probably 100 to 200 times largerthan our sun. Deneb has alwaysbeen a favorite of mine for itsbrightness despite its distance,and also because it is one star ofthe Summer Triangle which gracesthe summer sky. Then too, it is inthe constellation, Cygnus, alsoknown as the Northern Cross, andwhich our Lord obviously putprominently in the night sky to re-mind us of himself. There’s an-other cross in the southernhemisphere in case you go there.Interesting. By the way, how well do youdeal with the concept that timeand space both have no beginningand no end? How can that be? Onthe other hand, if space ends at awall or something, isn’t theregoing to be something on the otherside of the wall? These are mattersso far beyond our experience that

they boggle the mind. We mightaccept them as true, but we can’treally understand them. That goes for God too. He is sofar outside our human experiencethat we might be inclined to doubthis existence. Can he really controleverything about the world andstill be personally concerned aboutus? The short answer to that is,“Yes.” It’s hard to look at the sym-metry and complexity of this worldand not see the work of a skillfulcreator. We, however, can no morecompletely understand God thancan we grasp the idea of time andspace having no beginning or end.That, of course, doesn’t mean Godisn’t there. It just means he’s be-yond what we can comfortablytake in all at one time. He didmake it somewhat easier for us bysending his son in human form toearth so we could see many char-acteristics of God and identify withhim without being overwhelmedby his ultimate glory. Well, have I made you uncom-fortable by suggesting you con-sider matters that you can’t beginto fathom? It is unsettling, to besure. I don’t drag these subjectsout and consider them very oftenjust because they tend to put mymind in a fuss. There is an anti-dote, however. Just lay them asidefor the present and go deal withthings you can comprehend—reada book, play a computer game, eata hamburger, take a drive. Inshort, get on with life. Still, occasionally we need to getbeyond ourselves and our littleworld. We have to consider thattime goes on forever and that per-sonal preparations may need to bemade for that eventuality. Now that I’ve given due thoughtto all these hard subjects, though,I need a break. I need to come backto earth. Perhaps I’ll go for a driveand get the mail. When I get back,I could have a bite to eat andmaybe take a short nap. These arenice manageable endeavors andthings that don’t jangle my nerves.Those subjects that are beyond mecan safely be put on hold until to-morrow when I might be more in-clined to wonder some more.Maybe tomorrow I’ll consider sub-atomic particles or things that areway too small to see, or not. It de-pends on how I feel. That probablyapplies to you as well, but there’splenty out there to wonder about.Happy wondering.

The Waln’s includedLaney’s husband, Joe, and theirfour kids, Bodey, Billy, Madi andRei. Then on Saturday, the Walnscame to Mike and Marlene’s sothey could help celebrate Rei’s firstbirthday. They stayed overnightand left on Sunday. They couldn’tleave, however, until, despite thecold temperatures, they’d helpedwith chores since doing those is ahighlight of their visits—feedingcattle, pigs and other livestock.After a busy weekend, Marlenewas glad to have Monday off fromthe bank in Kadoka although shesaid Mike had plans for things theycould accomplish together that day. Lee Addison and Rhonda stayedhome this weekend, but the lastfour weekends have seen themtraveling to Gettysburg and High-more. They’ve been helping friendswith some building projects andalso helping them take care ofhunters who stay at their motel.Rhonda got to make quite a bit offry bread, construct Indian tacos,etc. Pheasant hunting has been themain activity there, but deer sea-son opens next week. Mark and Nicci DeVries arebracing themselves for thewrestling season which starts thisweek. With all three boys in school,Nicci helping Amy Smiley withteaching, and Mark coaching thisand that, they keep the roads fairlyhot between home and Kadoka.Two cars coming and going are notunusual, and sometimes there are

three. Nicci also helps coach thecheerleaders. This year, Gavin is ajunior, Geoffrey is in the eighthgrade, and Greyson is in the fifth.Mark says that, with the boysspaced about three years apart,they get to attend practically everysports and music event, whichkeeps things fairly busy.

Delores Bonenberger said hergrandson, Kade, and the other guyswere around the place this week-end hunting some deer. They didn’thave much luck but will continuetrying. Kade was headed back toDickenson, ND, however, to con-tinue helping Collers dig waterlines. There is a lot of new housinggoing on thanks to the oil boom,and water lines are required.

Rush Funeral Home’s mainchapel is moving from 203 W. PineStreet to its new site at 165 EastHighway 14, in Philip. An openhouse will be held Sunday, Novem-ber 18, from 1:00 p.m. to 3:00 p.m. The new location was once thePark-Inn Cafe and gas station, be-fore it became a Kingdom Hall forthe Jehovah Witnesses. The newbuilding is 4,917 square feet, witha 36x36 garage. It is OccupationalSafety and Health Administrationcompliant; including the air ex-change unit in the embalmingroom set to exchange the air 14times per hour. The layout of theviewing room is for easier visitingof the attendees. Actual funeralservices will still be held inchurches or other family chosenplaces. As part of the open house, therewill be on display a replica of thecoffin used to show President Abra-ham Lincoln during his lying instate. It is one of five replicas made10 years ago by the Batesville Cas-ket Company of Indiana. The coffinwas designed using the only knownsurviving 1865 photograph of thecoffin. The distinction between acoffin and a casket is that a coffinhas six sides (diamond shaped) anda casket has four sides. Four of the five coffin replicastravel the nation for display at fu-neral homes, and the fifth remainsas part of the permanent collectionat the Abraham Lincoln Presiden-tial Library and Museum inSpringfield, Ill. Lincoln’s coffin was the mostelaborate of that time. It was con-structed of solid walnut, lined withlead and completely covered in ex-pensive black cloth. It was six feet,six inches long and decorated withsterling silver handles and studs

extending the entire length of itssides. Though it appears austerecompared to modern caskets, theoriginal was custom made for thepresident and featured a remov-able two-part top. The replica doesnot contain a lead lining. Historically, the coffin playedprominently in a plot by thieves tosteal the president’s body. In 1876,when a counterfeiting ring’s top en-graver was imprisoned, his gangdecided to break into the tomb andsteal the body, planning to hold itfor a ransom of $200,000 in goldand the freedom of the engraver.The plot was foiled when lawmenmade their move as the coffin wasbeing removed from the tomb. In 1900, Lincoln’s son, Robert,was afraid that more attempts tosteal the body would be made. A se-lect few viewed the body one lasttime, to ensure that previous at-tempts to steal the body had notbeen successful. Lincoln’s appear-ance had not changed much sincethat of his original burial in 1865.Lincoln was then permanently

buried, with the coffin placed in acage 10 feet deep and encased in4,000 pounds of concrete. It is estimated that one millionpeople viewed Lincoln’s body fromthe time of his death until his bur-ial. The funeral was the largest inthe world, until President John F.Kennedy’s death in 1963. It could be said that Lincoln’sdeath triggered the beginning ofthe modern day funeral service. Hewas the first public figure to be em-balmed and put on view – for al-most three weeks. The embalmingtechnique used was primarily usedon soldiers who died during theCivil War and needed to be trans-ported home for burial. People atthe time thought embalming was abarbaric violation of the body, butLincoln’s funeral changed that per-ception. His public viewing intro-duced the population to thebenefits of embalming. Mournerswere able to see the late presidentfor 20 days and embalming made itpossible.

Participating flower shops, in-cluding Pocetful of Posies inKadoka, will gather canned goodsfor distribution by their local foodpantries during National Hungerand Homelessness AwarenessWeek. During Caring Rose Week,November 12-17, donors who bring2 cans of food can buy 1 dozen long-stemmed roses to grace their tablesover Thanksgiving for only $10. Demand for food from charityproviders is up by as much as 40%due in part to America recoveringfrom the greatest economic down-turn since the Great Depression. Tohelp, florists across the centralUnited States will gather over 32tons of food for those in need duringCaring Rose Week November 12-17.Now in its 14th year, the programwill likely surpass three quarters ofa million pounds of donated foodover the life of the event.Florists in each community choosea local food-distribution charity.Collected canned goods are thendistributed through the charity tofeed those within the communitywho cannot otherwise meet theirnutritional needs. Coming at theonset of seasonally cold weather,the program helps food-distributionprograms when families begin toexperience the greatest financialpressure. According to Brian Barks,spokesperson for Foodbank for theHeartland in Omaha, Nebraska,their member agencies such asemergency shelters and churchpantries are reporting new faces attheir locations, often seeking helpfor the first time due to the soureconomy. Caring Rose Week’s timing – andthat of National Hunger and Home-lessness Awareness Week – is ap-propriate. “I think people at this time ofyear are in a reflective mood,” saidMatt Gasson, Executive Director ofFeeding South Dakota, with officesin Sioux Falls, Pierre and RapidCity, and about 450 non-profit affil-iates in every county across thestate. “People reflect on all that wehave and are thankful for. This is atime of great connection.”

Jill Henessy of Flower Box inGraceville, MN, reports that cus-tomers bring in bags of food ratherthan just the 2 cans needed. “Theirgenerosity is overwhelming. Thefood stays local, where we need it.” “The fact that we are doingsomething to help so many unfortu-nate people is reason enough to par-ticipate, especially now,” said IreneArnold of Chariton Floral in Chari-ton, IA. Tammy Holen at Artistic Am-biance in Minot, North Dakotanoted that Caring Rose Week wasresponsible for the largest amountof food ever picked up by the foodpantry in the Minot area. Conceived in 1998, Caring RoseWeek was created by HarryWhelden, General Manager ofNorth American Wholesale Florist

in Sioux Falls, SD, and now in Ro-seville, MN. Former food-industrybusinessman, Whelden took an in-terest in “National Hunger andHomelessness Awareness Week”sponsored by the National Coalitionfor the Homeless and the NationalStudent Campaign Against Hunger& Homelessness which takes placeeach year one week before Thanks-giving. “I am deeply grateful for the par-ticipation of the literally hundredsof flower shops across the GreatPlains for taking the time and en-ergy to help meet this need,” saysWhelden. “It’s a time of year whenfood is needed and appreciated.While many people are buying toysand other Christmas gifts, manyothers across America are withoutfood.”

Flower shops to deliver over 32 tons of food to those in need

by Norris PrestonPast national vice-commander

the American Legion The National Education Associa-tion’s 91st American EducationWeek is November 11-17. American Legion posts and fam-ily members are encouraged to par-ticipate in the weeklong cele-bration to support America’s youthand the NEA’s annual tagline,“Great public schools: a basic rightand our responsibility.” The American Legion has playeda significant rule in the history ofAmerican Education Week, being aco-sponsor of the initial event, De-cember 4-10, 1921. Distressed that25 percent of the country’s WorldWar I draftees were illiterate andnine percent were physically unfit,representatives of the NEA and theAmerican Legion met in 1919 toseek ways to generate public sup-port for education. American Education Week is noworganized a week before Thanksgiv-ing. It is celebrated in order to af-firm the importance of schools andeducation in nation building. It sig-

nals a commitment to developingthe necessary tools that Americanstudents require in order to be suc-cessful in practical life and helpbuild the nation. American Education Week is aperfect occasion to let the media in-side the institutes and increase theexposure of students. Ultimately Itcan only be a success if schools takethe initiative to involve quests frommany walks of life. If schools chooseto adopt this exercise, they will en-hance the sense of responsibilityamong both teachers and studentsand they can thus work together toimprove standards in the school. American Educational Weekhelps schools to let the studentsand parents know of the plans andinitiatives that the school has takento boost educational standards.Some schools often organize parent-teacher meetings during AmericanEducational Week in order to keepthe parents informed of their child’sprogress. It is observed nationwidein many different ways and it is re-ally up to individual schools as tohow seriously it takes the occasion.

Healthy BeverageChoices for Kids

Research shows that what chil-dren drink plays an important rolein keeping children healthy and ata proper weight. Over the lastthirty years, childhood obesityrates have nearly tripled. It’s crit-ical that we teach kids to eatsmart, but also drink smart. There are many drink choicesavailable: Soda, sports drinks, icedtea, iced coffee, energy drinks,milk, juice blends, 100 percentfruit juice and water, just to namea few. Sugar-sweetened beveragesare the largest contributor ofadded sugar in the American diet.A typical 20-ounce sugar-sweet-ened beverage contains 17 tea-spoons of added sugar. Refer to the Nutrition Factslabel on the container to know howmuch sugar is in a beverage. Somesugars occur naturally, such as 100percent fruit juice. The amount ofsugar will be found under the car-bohydrate section of the NutritionFacts label. Divide the totalamount of sugar in the containerby 4 (4 grams of sugar=1 tea-spoon). Soda is the soft drink that Amer-icans drink the most of. We don’talways realize how much extrasugar and how many extra calorieswe are getting when we drink a lotof soft drinks. These are referredto as “empty calories” because theydon’t have any nutrients (such asprotein, vitamins and minerals).In addition, sugar in soda com-bines with bacteria in the mouth toform acid. Acid attacks teeth. Toprevent tooth decay, limit between-

meal snacking of sugary drinkslike soda. Beware of buying fruit juice bev-erages, fruit juice drinks and fruitjuice cocktails for children. Youmay think these are good drinksbecause “fruit” is in the name.Many of these drinks are high insugar and only have a smallamount of fruit juice. Drinking sugar-sweetened bev-erages is associated with weightgain, obesity, and type 2 Diabetes.Research shows that children whodrink more than one glass a day ofbeverages such as soda, juices andjuice drinks each day are morelikely to become obese. Milk is a healthy beverage forchildren. Milk has calcium whichis important for strong bones andteeth. Whole milk is recommendedfor children under two years of agefor proper brain development.Growing children ages 2 and upneed two (8-ounce or 1 cup) glassesof reduced fat (2 percent or 1 per-cent) milk each day. Children over4 years old and up to age 8 canhave 2-1/2 cups of nonfat or skimmilk daily. Youth ages 9 and up, aswell as adult individuals, shouldconsume 3 cups of dairy each day. Instead of drinking pop at mealsor snacks, encourage children todrink milk, water, or 100 percentfruit juices. Parents can be posi-tive role models for children bydrinking and purchasing healthybeverages.
